In lieu of an admiring post of my mother, she wanted to do a crappy internet survey. To find a happy medium between the two, I decided to write my own survey questions. Let’s roll.

3. If you could have one wish fulfilled on your birthday, what would it be?

Any wish? I would have a house with land and people to take of the land — I don’t want to take care of it — by the water. I want to have plants and flowers and animals…
